This breakthrough could significantly enhance treatment options for high-risk patients. 3. Stem Cell-Derived Cardiac Muscle Patches A cutting-edge approach using stem cell-derived cardiac muscle patches has shown the potential to repair damaged heart tissue. ...
Anti-Angina APIs Angina is a condition that causes chest pain or discomfort due to reduced blood flow to the heart muscle. The cause of its occurrence is generally believed to be coronary atherosclerosis, which causes lumen stenosis and insufficient blood supply to the myocardium, resulting in an imbalance between myocardial supply and oxygen demand. ...
In honor of World Heart Day on September 29, we're diving into the world of cardiovascular diagnostics. ...
Enzymes that are specific to the disease itself are often used to diagnose and monitor cancer, heart disease, and liver disease. For example, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is an enzyme that is produced by the prostate gland and is used to diagnose and monitor prostate cancer. ...
IVS has carried out proof-of-concept studies to analyze the molecular mechanisms of action of different compounds on the contractile activities of different muscle cell types. IVS provides services to develop heart failure models driven by genetic mutations. Current projects include phenotyping of patent-specific engineered heart tissues (EHTs) ...
The heart is a unique organ in many respects since its activity is mandatory to sustain life. The heart’s circulatory system and coronary flow regulation are highly adapted to the vital role of the heart in sustaining life and to everyday physiological challenges. ...
Early morning exercise elevated corticosterone levels in muscle, heart, eWAT, iWAT, and BAT. After early morning activity, hepatic maltopentaose, maltotetraose, and maltotriose reduced the greatest, while glucose declined in the evening. ...
Heart Attack A heart attack occurs when blood flow to the heart is blocked, typically because of a blood clot or plaque that built up in the arteries over time. Your heart muscle needs oxygen in order to function properly, so when blood flow is blocked, the heart muscle begins ...
Cardiomyopathy, which is a general term for diseases of the heart muscle, is relatively rare in children, affecting only about 12 out of every 1 million Americans under the age of 18. ...
January 6, 2022—Researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania published a research paper in Science titled: CAR-T cells produced in vivo to treat cardiac injury. Heart damage or inflammation can induce fibroblasts to overproduce fibrous material, causing cardiac fibrosis, which hardens the heart muscle ...
Exercise Your heart is a muscle just like your biceps and calves—exercise can strengthen it. ...
Stage IIIB, locally advanced, ER/PR positive, HER-2 negative, grade 3, IDC of the left breast with muscle involvement diagnosed 07/30/2010, now with left lateral chest wall recurrence, ER/PR 100/100, strong/moderate, HER-2 negative, IDC involving the left lateral chest inferior and lateral to the axilla. ...
–September 25, 2019–Ancora Heart, Inc., a company developing a novel therapy to address heart failure, today announced results from an interim analysis of heart failure patients treated in the CorCinch FMR study, a U.S. early feasibility study evaluating the safety of the investigational AccuCinch® Ventricular Repair System ...
Mean concentrations of total mercury [THg] and selenium [TSe] (mass and molar based) were determined for five regions of the heart and two regions of the kidney of bearded seals (Erignathus barbatus) harvested in Alaska in 2010–2011. Mean [THg] and [TSe] of bearded seal liver and skeletal muscle tissues were used for intertissular comparison. Se:Hg molar ...
Fox-1/Fox-2 proteins, potent regulators of alternative splicing in the heart, skeletal muscle, and brain, repress calcitonin-specific splicing of the calcitonin/CGRP pre-mRNA. ...
